Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this title card, and only one in the last 20 years (and that was 11 years ago, when it sold for $802!). Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: very good. There is a small tear in the lower right border, with a few tack holes and tiny creases around the edges, and some slight darkening in the extreme outer edges of the right border and in the right of the top blank border. There is a piece of tape on the back of the center of the top border, but it was not put there for any restoration purpose. Other than the above defects, which mostly only affect blank white paper, the card is in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
